I feel it could use a little bit of work. Do you have more information on what the trail is like in the steeper portions? Class 1? Class 2? Class 3?? Can the lookout be rented in the summertime like other lookouts in Southern Oregon? Pictures from the trail or summit approach? Directions are somewhat vague, do you have more detailed directions that you can give? Is there a contact number that I can reach to get more information about this mountain? I don't mean to be to harsh but these would all be good things to know. Let me know if you add information or make some changes and I will upgrade my vote accordingly.
Several things could be added to the overview. One is that Pelican Butte is #57 on the Prominence Peak list and with 2156 feet of prominence and #84 on the Mazama's 100 Highest in Oregon list.
A road from the west side leads up to the summit and is accessed by going towards the Cottonwood Creek TH and watching for the unmaintained and very rough (high clearance) road that leads to the top in 4.5 miles. A tremendous viewpoint is attained when the summit of this peak is reached.

Not Staffed...I don't think this is typically staffed any longer. Sad.
